CAG League Sports: Madden 12 "JV League" - We Finished 3 Seasons! Thanks Everybody!!!

I believe there's only two games left: GB vs CHI and STL vs SEA. I know the first will get played here in a bit. I see where lyric proposed a time for the other game, but I'm not sure if he ever got a commitment from the Seattle owner.
 
alright sweet.
anyone up to sub against the cowboys as the redskins. since the redskins are un owned. the game will only go down tonight though if the trades of the cowboys are approved. pm me if ur thinking u can sub. and also pending on the time of the advancement
 
[quote name='DVO21']ok just talked to eagles owner in pms told him that trade was dead and we came up with a new deal.

eagles send rookie CB Laquon Charles overall 84 age 22-23ish pot A
for
cowboys 1st 3rd 4th round picks

this is a more than fair trade same trade only the Cb im getting is 9 ratings lower[/QUOTE]

I think this is too much. Considering the guy is only a rookie I think the first and third would be good enough.
 
Packers 35
Bears 7

This game was closer than the final score indicates. I jumped out to a 21-7 lead midway through the 2nd, but Doc shut me down until I scored a couple garbage-time TDs late off of turnovers.

GG, doc. I know you had a rough game. Cutler was making some shitty throws. Give it some time to learn playing with Chicago, and you'll be a lot better. And I'm sorry about that dive on that TD run. I thought I was going to get tackled, so I hit the X button.

hey N8 just curious doesnt look like there is anymore talk on the cowboys trades between eagles or the panthers wondering if ur ready to give ur final word on them when u ge tthe chance.
if the trades go through i hope both owners are around to move the players if not i was hoping maybe u could help get them moved around N8 if thats not to much to ask i know u got alot going on with other leagues and well home life as well let me know bro

I think we can approve both of these now. As I mentioned and Ultimate Matt X agreed with, you might be overpaying a bit for Charles, but you could also argue that that's the price for trading him in division. I think the trade would be fine without the 4th rounder, but since you're the one pursuing the deal, I can understand the logic of just wanting to make sure it gets done.

If there are no other objections, I'll move the players after I advance the league. Oh, also, just so everyone is aware, NOW DVO is basically done trading for the season, lol.
 
sounds good man thanks for moving them for us bro greatly appricated

also if anyone can sub tommrow as the redskins around 630-8 central let me know thru pm
 
Tried to play Rams/Seahawks tonight, but the connection was so bad that we had to finally give up. Damailman says it is his school's bad internet. It was like playing in stop motion, but we were toughing it out on our second try until the connection finally broke.

I know the league is supposed to advance tonight, so is it OK if we just sim this one? I don't really want to start over again at 11:50 p.m.

Or, if we can extend, I can play tomorrow ...

Hmmmm ... He just invited me again. Giving it one more try ...
 
I'd like to avoid extensions at all costs this season. If it drops again, we'll have to sim it. If it becomes a regular problem for damailman, he'll have to drop.
 
Seahawks 21
Rams 14

Rams fall to 0-2 with a heartbreaking loss to rival Seattle. Miraculously, the connection seemed fine on our third try, and I blame the late hour for this loss. The pivotal moment in the game came when I was about to get at least a field goal at the end of the second quarter. I pushed the wrong button for my receiver, and Sam Bradford just lobbed it up there for an easy INT. Had I gotten points there, I would have been ahead 17-14 in the third, which would have changed the way I played the rest of the game. Instead, we were tied 14 all, and I couldn't milk the clock.

GG damailman. Next time, I'll know not to start a game that late! I'm exhausted.
 
All right, we have advanced to Week 3, and I moved the players from the two trades today. I also went ahead and put James Jones and Kroy Biermann on their new teams since that hadn't been done yet. Everybody should be good to go for week 3. Deadline is 3/1!
 
Maybe I will dip my toes into the trade market this season after all.

I could use some help at offensive tackle (preferably RT) and LB.

Guys I'm strongly looking to move:

Pierre Thomas, HB, 78 OVR, Age 27, POT B
Willis McGahee, DT, 78 OVR, Age 30, POT C
Chris Ivory, HB, 74 OVR, Age 24, POT B

I would entertain offers for Marques Colston, WR, 88 OVR, Age 29, POT A...but I'd have to get a WR back because I only have 5 on my team, and one of them is out for 8 weeks. I'd also be willing to move a CB if the offer was right.

[quote name='pitfallharry219']Yanksfan, I went ahead and dropped James Jones. Sorry for taking so long.[/QUOTE]

Np, we're good now.

I am not on my computer and won't be until this evening (PMing doesnt work well on my phone). I believe we play this week. Do you have any times available in the evening up until 10pm EST?
 
Is it the responsibility of the primary team to contact the secondary team? This isn't directed at anyone, just wanted to know the standard protocol.

Also....go Chiefs :D

Yes. For obvious reasons, the game matters more to the primary team, so they should be the one reaching out.
 
Eagles and Cowboys trade is fine. (Still strange he wants to trade away to his div rival)
I still don't like the Panthers and Cowboys trade, but I guess if both people are happy then I am fine with it.
 
Reached out to the Bengals owner and waiting to hear back for our game. I know a few guys are out of pocket for a few days and so on. Is he one of the guys who is asking for subs?
 
Im here waiting to play . Sorry bout before just thought id get a message sayin the draft and season started. But im here and ready. And i traded cause he is the only one too offer a trade. And vick is still avaliable for trade

Just going to get this "scolding" out of the way so we can move on. Not sure why you'd think you'd get a message telling you things were "still going", when it's always been the expectation of everybody in the league to keep up with the thread. I run 3 sports leagues and have a wife and 3 month old daughter. I don't think it's unreasonable to ask people to check in on the thread every other day...hell, all you have to do is look at the title.

And so you're aware, missing the first two weeks puts you on thin ice the rest of the season. If you miss one more game (without having a valid reason and letting us know in advance), you'll be ineligible to play in the playoffs. This was a policy discussed at length last season, and was largely agreed upon.

It's basically a way to prevent people from riding sim wins into the playoffs. Since I can't force a team to lose when they don't show up, the only other consequence would be not letting them play in the playoffs should their team make it. I hope this serves to encourage you rather than discourage you. All you have to do is play your games and you'll be fine.
 
Think it's possible to get a sub for the Bengals? Reached out to Lyric yesterday after noon before we advanced trying to work out a time for texans/bengals today. Messaged again this morning. Have a small window this after noon and even smaller tomorrow.
 
Yeah beleave me i know i have two daughters i have sole custody. Just me and work 65 hours and play in over 11 leagues. Thanks for the reply its the first ive had figuring i should have one no show as i never recieved a contact back on a time to show up for week two. Any good stuff and see everyone on the field soon
 
Chiefs vs. Chargers is scheduled for tomorrow night at 10:30pm EST.

I'm looking forward to playing against the old squad!

------
Giants have reached out to the Seahawks but no word back from them yet.
 
Titans vs Saints tomorrow at 6:00p EST.
Hopefully the Titans can back on track in this game. I am personally in rut, and have lost four games in a row, either normal, subbing, or online ranked.
 
So DVO subbed for the Eagles (he is the Cowboys) against my Giants last week.

He just asked me if I can sub for the Redskins (I am the Giants).against his Cowboys.

Does this league frown upon getting subs inside of the division? i.e. a Dallas primary owner subbing for the Eagles, espescially when they are playing the Giants.

With so few people I wouldn't think it should matter much, but I don't ever think I heard any rules pertaining to this.
 
ya i was curious about this rule to.
anyways
cowboys vs skins going down at 1745 central staticz as the sub

Yeah, that should work. I'm not looking forward to trying to keep up with the Joneses going across the middle. :lol:

I understand, and we don't need to get into an "everybody is busy" discussion. The point was just that signing up for the league commits you to certain things. That's all.

As for the 2nd no show, all I knew of it was that LVPatriots posted this on 2/24...

[quote name='LVPatriots']No word whatsoever from the Eagles owner. Any idea's what his deal is this season? Did he participate in the draft?

May need a sub over the weekend if anyone wants to volunteer.[/QUOTE]


...which was two days after we had advanced, after you had missed the draft and week 1, and 16 days since your last post in this thread. At that point, I didn't think it was unreasonable for him to be seeking a sub. It's fine though. Just trying to explain why things happened the way they did.

Just PMed you. Can't do tonight but will be available tomorrow. Games aren't due until March 1, so we have a few days to work with here. Think it's a little early for you to be asking for a sub ...

Lyric messaged me yesterday and suggested this evening. I can play this evening but later in the evening.

As far as jumping the gun, I appologize I think it's more of me anxious and wanting to play! Sorry fellas!
 
Just got some bad news that Yanksfan is going to need to take some time away from the league. He said he had some personal issues come up and it's going to prevent him from being able to play. He's not sure how long he'll be gone, but he does hope that he's able to return at some point if there is still a spot open in the league.

I don't know how anyone else would feel about it, but I vote to keep Atlanta open until Yanksfan is able to play again (obviously subbing where we'd need to though). As far as I'm concerned, that's HIS team. I hope that whatever he's going through rights itself and he has time for less important things like video games again soon. He was definitely a huge asset to the league and will be missed.

I definitely agree! Hope everything works out for yank! I'm all for keeping his ATL team open.
 
Would anyone mind if I switch to the Colts as my secondary? I played 1 of the 2 games they played so far this season, and I would like to get more oppurtunities to play Doc. If not it's cool, but figured I would ask.

I am really disappointed that Yanks had to leave, but I can completely understand.
I have no problem keeping it open. I think it would be okay if someone took it as a secondary team for when/if he comes back.

Off topic:
I got a message on xbox live last night asking to purchase my xbox live account. Obviously, I wont be selling or responding. My xbox account is worth much more to me then he is offering, not to mention that it's probably a scam.
Anyone else ever had something like this happen?

Edit: The best thing is that he is offering MSP. How would I even use then if I sell my account? lol.
 
Pats 31, Bills 28. A big interception with 30 seconds to go in my end to end the 1st half definitely put me down but I was able to come back and with a little more than 2 minutes left I just couldnt find a way to stop a Brady QB sneak at a 3rd and 1 and the rest is history. Good game, just hoping next time my DBs dont drop so many interceptions...
